Florida Appellate Courts "explode" with foreclosure reversals

There has been an explosion in the Florida District Courts of Appeal (DCAs) of foreclosure reversals. Starting in the later half of 2015, there have been around 5-10 opinions per month reversing the lower court's foreclosure judgments rendered in favor of the bank.  The Appellate Justices have finally noticed that numerous banks file foreclosure actions in the trial court without having any relation to the underlying loan or the property.  And people wondered about the multi-year backlog of foreclosures in the Florida Courts and the necessity to recall retired judges to help out...  The problem would have been far less significant if the decisions listed below had started to come out in 2010 instead of 2016.  Apparently, there is truth in the allegation that courts are sometimes just slow rather than corrupt.  Although, of course, one does not exclude the other... ;-)
